Bombardier’s bonanza, Issue 11 May/Jun 2000

Bombardier has had a boost to its fortunes with the largest regional
aircraft order in history; accounted for by a massive CRJ order from
Delta Connection carriers. It has also experienced a revival of the Dash
8 from Spain’s Air Nostrum and finally will benefit following a ruling by
the WTO that PROEX susbsidies used by Embraer to aid financing of
its products are illegal.
